    I was going to post on this thread earlier but I did not know if it's for real. The last time someone said something about a barn I felt like an a-hole by the time I left because the whole thread was a joke. Now I just feel jealous that you found something as cool as that. I wish I could buy it all and set it up in my garage dust and all. Cool thread!

    All Hail Satan. Is there a story behind this collection? How does all that sweet stuff go untouched until now? Thanks for the thread. It proves that they're still out there somewhere.

    There are stashs like this all across the country wherever old guys liked cars and parts. As they fade away and their wives and kids give on doing anything will all "Dad's" or Granddad's" stuff they know nothing about, the stuff either gets dumped at the city dump, sold at auction, or pieced out like this stuff seems to be going away.
    Often these days, many "dead man's trailers" show up at swap meets being emptied for sale by "Dad's" club member friends who split the sales less expenses with the widows or kids. The good thing is some nice stuff appears and is often priced to sell right now, the last item sometimes being the trailer itself!

    Man Packard PT boat engine, apperently complete. Anythig for a 228 GMC? I have one that I'm sure could stand overhaul.
     
  25. Holy shit! I would really see how much he wanted for everything and then take out a loan to buy it all. You would definitely make your money back.

    I have been told the Allison V12 of WWII was a derivation of the Packard, (don't know, I've never seen the Packard in person) so It might be made to fit into a shoebox at that (didn't someone in OZ put a Merlin in a 55 Chev?).
